Fall 2009 Training
Mesocycle 15 - Week 3

Squat Day

Beginning Thoughts:
I cannot believe the weekend is almost over. It literally flew by. Come next week I am going to be cramming for finals...Fucking terrible.

So, I had to skip yesterday's planned Press Day so I merged the two workouts together today.
Workout:
Front Squats:
255 lbs x 2 reps
275 lbs x 2 reps x 3 sets
315 lbs x Choke
So...I did my 3 sets with 275 which much better control than last time (I'm pretty pleased with that) but when I took the 315, I just couldn't do it. The bar was up against my throat and it literally choked me. I just stood with the bar for like 15 seconds, got extremely light headed and dizzy, saw some sparks and thought I was about to faint and I racked the weight immediately because I started learning backward. This has never happened to me before. Really miserable feeling. I am just waiting to break the 315 barrier lol....Only a matter of time, though. I am sure of it.

Dumbbell Rows:
125 lbs x 3 reps x 3 sets
125 lbs x 6 reps <<-- used straps
I saw 125 lbs DB's and I just had to jump on this. Hahah...

High Cable Rows:
160 lbs x 10 reps x 2 sets
190 lbs x 5 reps
175 lbs x 8 reps
I used this new bar which I've never come across before and I wanted to experiment it with it for a bit. It was awesome.

Farmers Walks:
105 lbs x 1 trip x 6 sets
I was toasted after this. I got 2 clips of this in my video.

Overall Impression:
My next workout will be on Monday night (unless something unexpected turns up). I need to focus more on diet.

I hope y'all had a happy thanksgiving. Good luck for the new week, everyone and thanks for reading!
